It's a happy day.

I received an e-mail from Ritsumeikan University today.
It all started with:
"Greetings from Ritsumeikan University! Congratulations!"

My vision went quasi-blurry from there. Yes, I started to cry (I don't cry often. I don't). It's one of those happy reflexes you can't control.

I literally cried while I was reading the lengthy e-mail.

I have been formally accepted in the university, however, the JASSO scholarship results are not yet out.

Ritsumeikan also sent a pdf file: Pre-arrival Guide. I was smiling while I was reading each page.

My university coordinator said that the JASSO results will be out by February. I really hope that I get that scholarship because if I don't, I might not be able to pursue my studies in Ritsumeikan.

God is good. I really can't explain the happiness I felt when I received that e-mail. I am praying that the JASSO results will also bring in much elation. Cheers!

Just one more round! One more round, Let's do this. Help me God. Cheers!

I am counting the days.

I think about it everyday.

I imagine myself living this dream.

I pray that everything will happen as I have planned.

I remain both optimistic and immensely nervous.

I seriously don't know what to do with my 2011 if this doesn't happen.

Please, let's make this happen. Help me God.

Cheers to wishful thinking!

Hi.

Technically, I'm not yet "there" hence the deceiving blog title (I'm finally here).
But someday (hopefully, soon enough), I'll get there.

I'm still waiting for February, and if the results are good, I shall wait for April.

And then this blog shall come to life.

Cheers!
